PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x13 inch pan well with vegetable oil.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook onions and
garlic in oil until tender. Add mushrooms, and cook until soft. Remove
from heat.

In a saucepan, combine spinach and 1/4 cup water. Cover, and cook
over medium heat until wilted. Drain. In a large bowl, mix together
spinach, onion/mushroom mixture, and ricotta cheese.

In a frying pan, brown moose meat over medium-high heat, stirring
frequently. Once the meat is well browned, drain to remove excess
grease. Stir in spaghetti sauce and water, and season with oregano,
Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper.

Ladle enough of the meat sauce into a 9x13 inch baking dish to
cover the bottom in a thin layer. Arrange a single layer of noodles over
the sauce.

Spread one half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles,
and top with some of the spaghetti sauce and 1/4 cup of parmesan and 3/4
cup mozzarella cheese.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until lasagna is hot and bubbly. Serve with garlic bread and a salad.

Here's another one of my moose recipes that is requested often;
because it is so good. We are going to cook this roast "low and slow"
to produce a tender savory roast. Add potatoes and carrots during the
last hour of cooking.

Heat some oil in a heavy skillet and brown the roast on all sides
in the hot oil. Spray the slow cooker crock with vegetable oil and add
the browned moose roast. Sprinkle the seasonings over the roast and add
the juice.

Cover and cook on high for 4 to 6 hours, or on low for 8 to 10 hours. Thicken juice for gravy.

For the steak sauce, just melt the butter and add the grated onion;
cooking until translucent. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer
until reduced in half; set aside.

When the sauce is almost reduce in half...in a heavy skillet, melt the 3
tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Cook the moose steaks to
desired doneness. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

In the skillet, add the brandy and light on fire; letting it
stand until the flames go out. Add the sauce mixture and heat to a
boil. Serve this with sauteed mushroom over the steaks. Moose Diane,
anyone?

On a cold winter day, make this moose recipe in a dutch oven and let it simmer on low for a couple of hours. The house will smell heavenly. Here's my take on moose stew.

In a heavy skillet, heat the oil and brown the moose meat on all sides.

Meanwhile, mix the gravy packets, beef broth and brown sugar together;
pour over the browned moose meat. Simmer for 1 hour. Add the
vegetables and simmer another 30 to 45 minutes, or when the meat and
vegetables are tender.

Slice roast into slabs approximately 1/4 inch thick. Trim off
all of the fat from the edges. Cut the slabs into strips. Mix the
garlic powder, onion powder and cracked pepper together and sprinkle
half of the seasoning mixture over the strips in a large bowl. Put the
remaining half of seasonings in a tightly covered container; store in
refrigerator for now.

Bring the marinade mixture to a boil and pour over the seasoned moose strips; marinate for at least 4 hours.

Remove from marinade and place in dehydrator. Sprinkle both sides of
the meat with the remaining spice mixture. Dry for a good 5 hours.
Stand back. They will knock you down to get a hold of this jerky. Just
a fair warning. A moose recipe worth it's weight in gold.

More moose recipes? You bet. Make sure you serve this with
mashed potatoes with homemade biscuits and more gravy. Get out your meat mallet, because you need to tenderize the steak before frying it to perfection.
